Description
Retrospective analysis of the Danish tumor bank. 43 patients with Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome were identified (clinical criteria + STK11 mutations). STK11 mutations were detected in 86% of those tested (18 of 21 probands) and included eight nonsense mutations, five frameshift mutations, two splice site mutations, two large genomic rearrangements, and one missense mutation.
